Hurricane Melissa left a trail of destruction across the Caribbean, from Jamaica and Cuba to Haiti. Hundreds of thousands of people are in urgent need of food, shelter and clean water. Atlanta-based CARE is putting boots on the ground to help.

New satellite imagery captures the complete devastation across Jamaica left in the wake of deadly Hurricane Melissa. With the help of satellites, we are beginning to get an understanding of just how catastrophic Hurricane Melissa was.

Hurricane Melissa damaged several Caribbean islands and left at least 60 people dead. One family that was trapped in Jamaica is just now getting back home.

After lashing Jamaica with dangerous winds and flooding rain, Melissa made a second landfall in Cuba as a Category 3 hurricane on Wednesday morning. Melissa then moved through the Bahamas, and next, on Thursday night, the storm will pass Bermuda as a Category 1 or 2 hurricane.

In the days since Hurricane Melissa ripped through the Caribbean, we’re getting a clearer understanding of both the destruction and desperation the deadly storm has caused.

Hurricane Melissa brought hurricane-force gusts to Bermuda overnight and will weaken as it heads north, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. Maps show its forecast path.

At first light on Wednesday, the coastal communities of southwestern Jamaica bore the devastation of being in the direct path of Hurricane Melissa.
